First off, I have successfully setup tethering between the two devices. So the whole pairing process has been successful. In addition, I have no problems transferring from my Pearl to my Mac.

When I look under BT options on the Pearl, it shows that Data Transfer is checked. When I look at the Pearl Services on my Mac's BT menu, Data Services is not present. When I then try and send a file from my Mac to my Pearl, it says the device does not have the proper services.
